Objectives: This study aimed to compare clinicopathological features and immunostaining for cytokeratin-10 between oral lichen planus and oral lichenoid lesions.
Design: This was a retrospective longitudinal study comparing lichen planus and oral lichenoid lesions diagnosed at the Oral Pathological Anatomy Service that analyzed sociodemographic and clinicopathological data and CK10 expression. Chi-square tests, Fisher's exact tests and Mann-Whitney tests or Student's t tests were used when appropriate, and p values < 0.

This case report describes Zoon's vulvitis or plasma cell vulvitis (PCV) with coexisting lichen planus (LP) treated with methotrexate. PCV is a rare, chronic, benign idiopathic inflammatory condition of the vulvar mucosa, characterized by a bright-red, chronic lesion of mucosa. Typically, it presents as atrophic, shiny, red plaques that can affect any part of the vulva and can spread symmetrically and bilaterally with the propensity of chronicity and gradual coalescence.

Our study aimed to establish the basic reliability parameters of direct immunofluorescence test results in patients with oral lichen planus. We conducted an evaluation of individual antibody classes in the DIF and ELISA (BP180 antigen), comparing these results with the classical histopathological (HP) examination in a group of patients treated within the standard healthcare in our clinic. Among 66 participants with oral changes indicative of LP, only 50% received histopathological confirmation of the LP diagnosis.

Objective: This study investigates the proteomic profiles of oral epithelial dysplasia with lichenoid features (OEDwithLF) and evaluates its relevance as a histopathological feature for lichenoid mucositis (LM) through differential proteomic characterization.
Study Design: SWATH-MS proteomic profiling was conducted on FFPE samples from 6 OEDwithLF, 5 OED cases without associated lymphocytic infiltration, and 5 LM cases. Protein expression levels were quantified and compared.

Background: Clinicopathological diagnosis and follow-up of oral lichen planus and leukoplakia are necessary due to its potential for malignant transformation and the need to differentiate it from other lichenoid diseases and proliferative verrucous leukoplakia. This study aimed to classify and compare sociodemographic and clinicopathological features among patients with oral lichen planus, oral lichenoid lesions and proliferative verrucous leukoplakia.
Methods: A transversal observational study in which oral leukoplakia and oral lichen planus patients were surveyed at the Oral Pathological Anatomy Service and Applied Biotechnology Laboratory was conducted.
